Scenario:
I have a old, spare server that I want to play around with to learn Linux.
Stats:
Pentium III Duel 450 Mhz
512 MB RAM
5 9GB Hard Drives in RAID 5
I know, pretty old but it currently has MS Server 2003 on it and runs pretty well aside from taking forever to boot up. But once booted up, it actually runs pretty well.
I know nothing about Linux. So, I need something that will run well on old equipment and an easy install, GUI that is user friendly, and plenty of wizards.
I guess what I need is a Linux for Dummies but a server version.
I plan on running it at home next to my other 3 servers…domain controller running MS Server 2003, game server running Win XP (America’s Army), and a web server running MS Server 2000.
Any ideas or suggestions?
